Paradoxica
Vain paradox in crazy swirl,
Ablaze the mad in curious dance;
Imprint the box in weary world,
Now irks the bad in broken chance.
Plight of sore eyes in blurry gaze,
Alarm primes take in deadly chimes;
Return most nigh to false embrace,
Attempt can fake that solemn time;
Dead crumbling ash in harsh descent,
Obtain blank twist in atmosphere:
eXpect long dash to bleak intent,
Image and gist of expired cheer;
Crumbling loss wiles the promised fate,
A cause once piled the happy plate.
